WD-Functions: GetXMLObject, GetToXML (serializing collections to xml)

Hi there,

i'm working on some object-dependent references (InsertShoppingCart) to add, change, or delete some data in the system.

Therefore, i copied the component "VI_UNS_RequestNewGroup" and made my changes.

Now i'm thinking about giving the data into the ShoppingCartItem-object.

Currently I put pipe-separated data in the field OrderDetail1 (like in Version 5.1 the references for AD-Groups did) which works fine for Single-row collections.

But i also a have Custom schema collection with more than one row.

After some research i found the functions "GetXMLObject" and "GetToXML" and i think this is exactly what i'm looking for (serializing a collection in a xml-schema).

But i don't now how to Use the functions.

Could you tell me how to use the function(s) or is there a more elegant way to give the data of a collection into the ShoppingCartItem-Object?

Best regards,

Martin
